 How can the graphics take so much of the development time? |
| Typically, clients have an idea of what they want for graphics, but do not have the the graphic on hand. Any graphics, that are on hand are not optimized for the internet. We are then forced to create/recreate the graphic from scratch or at minimum resize the graphic.
For example, let us examine creation of The Company Logo.
If a company does not have a logo, we develop the logo. We present a draft, rework, present and represent drafts. When the logo is finally accepted we realize we have designed 50 different variations on a theme. Net... 1 graphic for 20 hours labor, a very expensive graphic.
On the other hand, the company has a logo. Yet the only copy logo is on a piece of letterhead or businesscard. The graphic has to be recreated if it is to represent the company. Net... 1 graphic for 1 hour labor.
If you can deliver the graphics to us, it can decrease the cost of the web site by more than half. We need the graphics delivered properly sized and optimized for fast loading in a .gif, .jpg or .fla format. At the minimum, we need "camera ready" graphics to help you minimize the expense. |
